Links - manual & automatic
How do I make it so links are only updated manually? For instance, right
now, when I open the workbook that contains links to other un-opened workbooks, I tell it to not update...then when I try to add a line or something in the workbook, it goes and tries to update the links..but the source workbook is not open so I get the goofey "value" error in the cells. I have gone to edit/links and I see where you can choose "automatic" and "manual" for each link listed. However, the "manual" button is dimmed, meaning I cannot choose it. How do I make that button available to choose??? thanks! |

Hi.
I think you need to go via Tools-Options-Calculation-Manual. -- Two heads are better than one! Email: subst1tut3 numb3rs for l3tt3rs...

I tried that, I still am not able to choose "manual" in the edit/links section.
